OH Backpack Brigade & FSS Weekly

Good morning spouses!  First off, the ESC would like to congratulate all those that made the TSgt results this morning, and all those graduating ALS tonight.  What a great day for our Gunfighter family.

Just a reminder that there is NO meeting in July.  We will resume meetings on August 6th, and are planning to have a family and member appreciation BBQ that evening as well.  Keep your eye on your email and our Facebook page for details.   Our car wash fundraiser will be August 3rd at Les Schwab from 9am-3pm. 

We will be teaming up with the MedSpouse group to pull off Operation Homefront's Backpack Brigade.  More details to come, but you can start it off by putting the word out there that we are looking for backpack donations.  Walmart and Ross and other outlet stores have some for $3-5, and if you are a working spouse, seeing if your company wants to help out with donating backpacks would be great as well.  There will be several drop off spots, including my home in the bricks on base 5A Elm St.  Again, more details to come, but we will be needing volunteers Monday, August 12th to help with the back to school bash at Gunfighter Park where we will distribute the backpacks, and have different booths and activities for the kids.  If you would like to get involved, please respond to this email and let me know, or call me at 208-585-7127.

Below is the FSS Weekly.  Check out all the fun stuff to do including the Mother Son Dance tomorrow night at the Service Center Ballroom!  Have a great weekend!!
